Here's a pic of the last full-ti bike I was on back from 2001. Team Issue DA7700, Full SRP Bolt Kit, Aliente Carbon, Zipp 404s, Look 396s, Chris KingTi Headset, King Cages.

This was a super-sweet rig, and I still regret getting rid of this frame. It was one of the very first compact Serotta's... and before they started off using standard 8cm bb drop. This is a 7cm drop.

DANG!!!!!

Fantastic looking frames guys. I love the clean elegant look of brushed ti frames.

PYF...nice to see you're still posting. Your frames are sweet.

Anybody have a merlin/spectrum with those 1 inch diameter chainstays? Curious how much they had to indent or bend for tire/chainring clearance. Merlin's are pretty straight via Tom Kellogg's design and yet still fit with clearance. I just wanted to see some close ups and rear view if possible to see how they pulled it off. Usually the biggest ones us 7/8" diameter stays.

Keep the pics coming.....still waiting for my custom Ti.

Man, we are completely out of bikes right now, otherwise I'd post something new...

We have two prototypes that will be done in a couple weeks (3-4) and then I can put them up. One is a gnarly track bike (limited edition named Mawuse), and the other will be a road bike.

Until those are ready, I'll leave you with this...

I´m in love! That bike is so classy.
If the bars were a little lower and shallower I think it would fit me. 8)

Damn. I need to repeat myself here... love it.
What is the availability for a frame to denmark? ....and the price?

I'm looking at the Temple in the background. I am considering getting one. Could you tell me how it rides? Stiff or not? How is the fit service? Weight range for the frame? Thanks

rustychain - i assume you are talking about the aero bike? the stiffness is very good. we use a massive bladed 6/4 downtube and a unique construction to triangulate the bb and make it stiffer. the weight has been between roughly a kilo for a small frame and about 3lbs for a 61cm (just did for a client in Florida).

we spent a lot of time working out the design so that it rides like a lively ti bike and gets rid of road buzz like a good carbon bike. my favorite description to date is "the cleanest feeling bike i've ever been on," from a local pro who asked us to build bikes for him with his sponsor's logo...
